Designer Storage

Refined-rustic aesthetics and raw materials in contrasting textures bring modernity to today’s kitchen. A hint of black helps anchor the look visually, while steel brings an element of the industrial. Plenty of storage ensures benchtops remain clutter-free. This beautiful kitchen has the kind of well-designed storage that is a home chef’s dream.
